The person who was the victim of or witness to a criminal act is technically the complainant for the State's case. The victim becomes the State's witness, not a plaintiff. As such, it is not the victim's case, but the prosecutor's case. The prosecutor does not--and should not--just drop charges because a victim asks for the charges to be dropped. In addition, because the victim and witnesses are the State's witnesses, the Court can compel you to appear and testify. A victim cannot withdraw the original complaint, nor impede a court case. The prosecutor's staff will help a nervous or fearful witness to testify. But only the prosecutor can decide whether to offer lesser charges in a "plea deal"; prosecutors do not need the victim's permission to allow the defendant to plea, but the victim might be consulted if the deal means significantly less prison time. So the answer to your question is No, a victim cannot withdraw charges especially once the prosecutor already has the case.
